Officers called to a home on Hillcrest Avenue at 1:25 p.m. Wednesday found the victim crying hysterically, police said. She told officers the installer had flirted with her, but then completed his work and even had her speak with his supervisor to complete a survey about his job performance, according to a police report.

Once she got off the phone, she told police, Gordon sat next to her and asked, "Do you believe in love at first sight?" She said no, and then Gordon began to touch her neck and kiss her neck and upper chest, the report says. The woman protested, telling Gordon, "No, I'm married," but he continued, the report says. She said she told him, "No, stop."

The groping continued and then Gordon raped her, the report says. After five to 10 minutes, Gordon stopped, pulled up his pants, grabbed his belongings and left, the report says.

Police tracked down Gordon at his next appointment, on Westbrook Street in Hartford, and he agreed to speak with them, admitting having sexual contact with the woman, but saying it was consensual, the report says.

The satellite job took several hours to complete, and when he was done, Gordon told the woman she owed him, the report says. He told her he knew she was married and asked if she was going to leave her husband for him, then told her he would wait for her to leave her husband, the report says.

Gordon told police that the woman responded, "C'mon, you would wait for sure?" and that he responded, "Ya I'll wait, you're beautiful. Don't you think you're worth it?" Gordon told police he thought the woman was flirting with him so he kissed her.

His descriptions of what happened were inconsistent, police noted in the report. At first, he told police he only touched the woman over her pants, then said he removed her pants. When police pointed out his inconsistencies, he denied that he had changed his story. He admitted to police that the woman told him to "stop, stop, stop," the report says.

He told police that the woman called his supervisor after the sexual assault and gave him a positive review. He said he was worried she'd give him a bad review because of the sexual encounter, the report says.

"Prior to leaving, Rashford asked the victim if she was OK and if she was mad at him and she stated 'no just leave,' which he did," according to the police report.

She contacted a relative, who called police, and then her husband, who returned home, the report says.

After several hours of investigating, police charged Rashford with sexual assault Wednesday.

At his arraignment, Gordon wore a Tyvek suit because police seized his clothing as evidence. The woman was treated at Hartford Hospital.

If Gordon posts bail he will be fitted with an electronic monitor and will be under house arrest. He also was ordered to have no contact with the woman.

Gordon works for Eastern Video Services, an East Hartford company that is a subcontractor for satellite television provider DirecTV. Carl Mazzotta, Gordon's boss and the owner of Eastern Video, was at Gordon's arraignment. He initially declined to comment, but released a statement Thursday night.

"Our company has been in this business for 29 years and we pride ourselves on service and a trustworthy workforce," the statement says. "This is not who Eastern Video Services is. This is a brand-new employee who we acquired from another installation company that went out of business. The latest background check performed on him came up clean. Obviously, this individual was immediately terminated and we will continue to assist authorities in their investigation."

Gordon has no criminal convictions, but has two pending domestic violence cases.

On June 13, 2013, he was charged with second-degree unlawful restraint, breach of peace and interfering with an emergency call. One month later, on July 13, 2013, he was charged with threatening and violation of a protective order.

Wednesday's reported assault was the first of its kind in West Hartford that police Sgt. Eric A. Rocheleau could remember.

Rocheleau urged residents to try to not be alone when contractors are scheduled to do work at their homes. If they are home alone with a contractor and things don't feel right, get out of the house, he said.
